Publisher's Summary

This isn't a coming out story. Nor is it the tale of a lonely heart-seeking companionship. This is about how I learned to fight.

My name is Nathaniel Courtney, and I m a survivor. I didn't let the cruelty of others wear me down, and I've weathered the more subtle hardships of the heart. Love is a Trojan horse, slipping past your guard and leaving you ransacked and vulnerable. I emerged from that war not unscathed but as a new man. The only mistake I ever made was letting the right guy get away. Now I've got one more chance. This is the final battle, because if I fail now...I won't. You'll see. Just listen to my story, Kelly Phillips, and when I'm done, please don t walk away. Take this weary soldier into your arms so we can find peace together.

Something Like Thunder is the sixth book in the ongoing Something Like... series, shedding light on past events while leading the listener toward an exciting new future.

Something Like Over

I started reading Jaybell about three or four years ago and since then I have read everything that he has now said to say there's nothing more to pick from.
I have truly enjoyed the series and look forward to anything new that may be added under Jay's name I also. I also hope that the rumors that I have heard about a film being made out of one of the original books is true. I am keeping my eyes open for that.

Wonderful story

This is the 6th of this series that I finished and as always, it is awesome. Thanks, Jay Bell who creates this amazing books and Kevin R. Free who make the story more lively. Don’t miss it!!

I'm a sucker for this series

So, admittedly, this was not my favorite in the series, but I still loved every minute. Happy endings happy endings happy endings. They bring me to silly tears. I have to credit the author for cleverly bringing back characters and even recycling scenes from previous books in the series but from a different character's point of view. He also artfully takes a villain or unsavory character from a previous book and makes you care about them. These are just really good romantic fun in between a lot of the serious reading and listening I get to do for my job.

hot boy nataniel

GREAT SEQUAL

loved it. cannot believe it ended on such a high note. I thought it would end in a disaster.

Never disappoints!

I adore this series. This one was one of my favorites. SO SATISFYING!
What a wonderful author and what a mind he has.

Something Like.....Everything!!!!

After 6 books, I have ridden a wave of all emotions imaginable. As I'm writing this, I still have watery eyes. Jay bell does an amazing job of making you fall in love with his characters, even if your first impression of them was hate. A longing of what most of these characters have, love, is what rebounds in your heart as you listen to his stories.

When I first met Kelly, back in book 4, I couldn't stand him, thinking he was a queeny snob, the type of gay man I can't stand. Then I heard his story...and I fell in love. Same can be said for Nathaniel. At first he was a cold hearted man who seemed distant, but eventually thawed when the one thing he wanted was right in front of him. Both characters made you hate them, love them, get irritated with them, be sad for them then eventually fall in love with them and what they have...each other.

I only hope that Mr. Bell continues their story, and others in the series, so we can continue our roller coaster of emotions until it ends (hopefully never) with a high and fulfilling note.

Mr. Bell has skyrocketed to the top of my favorites list with his writing style and his books.

Now....to continue the adventure with the next book. Won't you join me?

Love the series

It’s so... amazing to have positive stories of gay men loving each other in healthy relationships. If you want to enter a whole universe, indulge!

This whole series never disappoints.

I thoroughly love this while series and Jay Bell’s wonderful storytelling. Kevin R Free brings the writing to life in a very satisfying way for me. I can’t stop listening! Five books to go!!

LOVE THE SOMETHING LIKE Series

I am just in love with all of the SOMETHING Like Series. A must read them all.
THANK YOU JAY BELL

good, lot's of good stuff

Nathaniel turns out to be a bit annoying, it's hard to be sympathetic to him, for most of the book, till he gets his act together, and why is a 23 year old practically an old person in this world, admittedly I haven't finished the book yet, Kelly turns out to be a pretty great guy 3 books in!, if you like these books you'll like this book, Ok I've finished it now and of course the ending is great and everything wraps up perfectly like allways, God these books are good, turns out Kelly is the best character of all,

Even more details

As always the story gave just a bit more of an insight into this amazing story and the narrator giving each character the respect they deserve. Absolutely loved it.

Getting a bit stale

How many times can I listen to the same story. I found myself wanting to fast forward through the parts I have heard at least 4 times now. Don't get me wrong it filled in some gaps but only a couple.
I don't do spoilers so can't say to much. But I accept he was emotionally damage but can someone really be so stupid...

The last couple of chapters where good, as was the 'shock discovery' though as soon as I heard the name Star, I sort of expected something.

My one thought.. If victor had known maybe things for him would have been different ..
